The code
try{ URL url = new URL("http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/xml?address=Riyadh&sensor=false"); BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(url.openStream())); String line; while(null != (line = reader.readLine())){ System.out.println(line); } }catch(Exception e){ e.printStackTrace(); } The output:
Server is Ready.... <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <GeocodeResponse> <status>OK</status> <result> <type>locality</type> <type>political</type> <formatted_address>Riyadh Saudi Arabia</formatted_address> <address_component> <long_name>Riyadh</long_name> <short_name>Riyadh</short_name> <type>locality</type> <type>political</type> </address_component> <address_component> <long_name>Riyadh Province</long_name> <short_name>Riyadh Province</short_name> <type>administrative_area_level_1</type> <type>political</type> </address_component> <address_component> <long_name>Saudi Arabia</long_name> <short_name>SA</short_name> <type>country</type> <type>political</type> </address_component> <geometry> <location> <lat>24.7135517</lat> <lng>46.6752957</lng> </location> <location_type>APPROXIMATE</location_type> <viewport> <southwest> <lat>24.2939113</lat> <lng>46.2981033</lng> </southwest> <northeast> <lat>25.1564724</lat> <lng>47.3469543</lng> </northeast> </viewport> <bounds> <southwest> <lat>24.2939113</lat> <lng>46.2981033</lng> </southwest> <northeast> <lat>25.1564724</lat> <lng>47.3469543</lng> </northeast> </bounds> </geometry> <place_id>ChIJmZNIDYkDLz4R1Z_nmBxNl7o</place_id> </result> </GeocodeResponse> I'm trying to use Google geocode API to get the coordinates of a city, but I'm facing problem that how can i parse the XML response to retrieve the longitude and the latitude of the city enclosed within the (<location></location>) section.
